Desktop GIS never overwrites someone else's work without asking. If a layer you changed was published by someone else since you got it, it asks you to choose:
- Use ForestrPro's version (keep mine as a copy)
- Their version replaces the layer, and your edits stay in a separate layer named "(my edits)", so you can copy across what you need.
- Publish mine (replace ForestrPro's version)
- Your layer is published as the newest version and replaces theirs, so only choose this if their changes aren't needed. Ask them first if you're not sure.
- Decide later
- Nothing changes. Your edits stay on your computer.
To avoid it, choose Get Latest before you start editing a shared layer.
